Liverpool (A) Post Match Thread

[Chi-town blues]

And what if he misses and is the 100 yards out of his goal? Don’t think that would work!

No he can take pk from his own box

 

[The blue phantom]

I thought Mahrez played pretty well tbh, can’t fault him for taking the pen but his head went when he decided to blast it. He’s got such a cultured left foot, but that’s pressure for you.

Agree mate, Always disappointing to read all this vitriol towards one of our players, shit happens and we move on.

 

[crazyadi]

Why is someone with a 30% ish conversion rate taking a penalty. That should have been 3 points. I'm never one to be down on the players and I keep telling my lad mahrez will come good but that was appalling from him today and he should NEVER ever take another penalty for us. However a point against the dippers at klanfield is a point more than we got last year.

 

[Proy]

Fuck off souness

 

[carlosthejackal]

Really are some pricks on here telling one of your own players to fuck off

 

[blueincy]

What about the penalty not given?

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Mendy was also fantastic, shows he is much more than only attack. This was hugely promising, and without KDB as well! Top of the league and a couple of the most difficult games gone already. Arsenal won’t drop many more points at home, I tell you that

 

[grifter]

It does feel disappointing after the pen miss but we’ve played well today and a point at Anfield in the grand scheme of things is a great result for us. We’ll smash them charlatans at the Etihad when KDB returns.

Laporte and Bernardo are the future and they’re bloody brilliant!

 

[hjm1962]

Im ok with the result..not losing is the criteria

 

[SWP's back]

Well that's down to Liverpool not pressing him as hard as they normally do. I think Klopp was genuinely scared of giving the Silva's any space.

Lol

 

[BerkshireBlue]

Out of interest, how do you know. I didn’t see that on TV? Not saying wrong just interested how you saw it

I presume Sky are going down the route of demonising Mahrez

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Sounness is a really good pundit.

 

[kalouk]

Sorry about the gender assumption btw

No problem at all.

 

[TFC]

On the bright side, no scouse **** scored a worldy for once.

 

[kaz7]

How the fuck did we all those yellows and should have had 3 pens?

I did say 0-0 lol

 

[Kladze]

And what if he misses and is the 100 yards out of his goal? Don’t think that would work!

Irrelevant, as he wouldn't have missed. Coolest head in England.

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Just one of those things.
Jesus could have missed too.
We have improved on last season's performance at Anfield, a draw is a good result.

 

[Gabriel]

Sadly, though Mahrez is a great player, I don’t think he’s a City player. He hasn’t got enough energy about him. We see the two Silva’s buzzing about all over the place and Sterling and Sane but in comparison Mahrez floats around at his own pace with little or no enthusiasm.

Same player was best n the country by a mile a couple of seasons ago and is wonderfully gifted. You have attributed 3 negatives to him that are premature and unfair. If people start jumping on that bandwagon, influenced today by one penalty miss, then it isn't going to help him settle.

 

[super_city_si]

there is not another team in the prem that would leave Sane on the bench.

I wouldn't have either, but in hindsight, Pep got it spot on. We controlled them. We had few silly turnovers and then Sane comes on and we should score the penalty and win. I think Pep will be thrilled with how his tactics worked. Not with the result.

 

[Danamy]

We've still got Kev to come back...i'll repeat...we've still got Kev to come back, we're top after 8 games without our best player, we're in good hands :-)
